Ingredients

  • For the Pasta
  • 1 stick salted butter, room temperature
  • 1 qt heavy cream
  • 4 cloves garlic, chopped
  • 1 cup Pecorino Romano cheese, finely grated
  • 12 oz fettuccine, cooked according to package directions
  • For the Chicken Cutlets
  • 2-4 thin chicken cutlets
  • 1 cup Italian-style breadcrumbs
  • 2 large eggs
  • Salt and black pepper, to taste
  • 1 tbsp water
  • 2 tbsp butter
  • 2 tbsp olive oil

Preparation Instructions:

For the Pasta:

In a saucepan over medium heat, add the butter and heavy cream. Bring to a gentle boil.

Reduce heat to a low simmer and add the minced garlic. Simmer gently for about 5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until slightly thickened and fragrant.

Stir in the Pecorino Romano cheese and continue to simmer on low until melted and smooth.

Add the Truffle Cacio e Pepe Seasoning and stir to combine. Keep warm on low heat.

For the Chicken Cutlets:

In a shallow bowl, combine the breadcrumbs with 1 tablespoon of the Truffle Cacio e Pepe Seasoning.

In another bowl, whisk the eggs with salt, pepper, the remaining 1 tablespoon Truffle Cacio e Pepe Seasoning, and 1 tablespoon water.

Dip each chicken cutlet into the egg mixture, then press firmly into the seasoned breadcrumbs to coat well.

Heat butter and olive oil in a skillet over medium heat.

Cook chicken cutlets until golden brown and cooked through, about 3–4 minutes per side. Remove and set aside.

To Assemble:

Toss the cooked fettuccine with the warm truffle cacio e pepe sauce until well coated.

Serve pasta topped with crispy chicken cutlets.

Drizzle additional sauce over the chicken before serving. Enjoy!
